Greenflor buyer Peter Freke specializes during early spring in robust blossom branches. He drives thousands of kilometers through the Benelux and towards Eastern Europe in search of the best, strongest and most beautiful varieties. From magnolia to cherry blossom and from spirea to prunus. Peter knows the right grower for everything!
A network full of blooming-blossom branches
His experience in blossom branches dates back some 25 years, when as a young tradesman he traveled with colleagues through Holland, Belgium and Germany in search of new nurseries and products. Thanks to his wanderlust curiosity, over the years he has built a cast-iron international network of 200+ growers. A network that Peter as a floriculture buyer can rely on year round for the best and most unique trade.
Magnolia, chaenomeles, salix and more
Ten years ago, importer and exporter Greenflor’s range of flowering branches consisted largely of local nurseries. With Peter’s arrival, the trade in flowering branches has expanded greatly. Even in early spring, Greenflor customers can now enjoy beautiful branches from international nurseries. Think gorgeous pink, red or white chaenomeles. Or, for example, pink, black or right Japanese prunus. But also for cherry blossom, currant blossom, spirea, forsythia or apricot blossom he does not turn his hand away. Also the salix twisted willow, coryllis branches and salix willow catkins that Peter buys are available in the most beautiful colors and natural tones.
An extensive network ensures a cast-iron assortment that Greenflor customers such as florists, garden centers and wholesalers are only too happy to enjoy in early spring. Read more here
